Its no way near as bad as the m26 glitch was, but still a glitch none the less, and something to watch out for.

You were always able to kill enemies with the M320 smoke. It may be easier now to do it, and from much longer range, but it still only kills one player at a time and has far less ammunition than a sniper rifle, which would earn a shooter that same one hit kill. It is not game breaking as the Dart/Mass glitches were, but will certainly frustrate some people.

And to add you can't use a scope for it just the normal dumb cross hair....and you only get 7 shots. I don't see this being a problem...

I was using it to snipe A and B from the carrier on Nosehair canals. Yes, it's a problem.

^Perhaps? I can't believe people are trying to justify it. This is obviously a glitch. The 320 has drop but this smoke garbage doesn't? Now I see why you wanted to try to out-snipe me with it inverted, it's a cake walk, no drop-calcs. Although the valid point was made about ammo/kps(kill per shot) it doesn't take any skill because it doesn't follow the same rules of physics the rest of the weapons do. If I see anyone using this glitch they will be warned, then kicked if repeated. If I see any 117 member doing/using it, it's an auto-kick, period.

Jay, it was a bit of sarcasm. I've never personally used the M320 Smoke since the latest patch. Chief's comments said enough to convince me. My first impressions of the glitch I shared earlier in the thread. DICE has already acknowledged the glitch and incoming fix, although the patch is likely to be weeks/months/DLC's away. Is this something that would warrant a !smoke command for all to use to report users? Perhaps at least a !smoke command to spam in chat when we see someone using it would be appropriate like the original !dart command was. Just my $.02.

I like the idea of the !smoke until they patch it. Good call. I hope spec is reading if not I'll try to remember to tell him.
